Chapter 169 - Two Queens?

At that comment she noticed that a strange look appeared on s.h.i.+n's face. "One of the new versions of the tale say, that a black and white Queen exist. There are two wonderlands, one world that is black and one that is white."

"Two Queens?"

"Or maybe it's just one Queen. After all without darkness there is no light and the same goes vice versa. The followers are divided because they think there are two Queens. But I wonder how they would react if they realize the Queen they are searching for is just one person? All their fighting--" Sumire closed her eyes briefly. "--and all their pain. Was it all for nothing?"

s.h.i.+n looked away and then sighed. "I feel like you know more than you let out."

"Well, I had plenty of time. I didn't work or go to school after the accident."

"So you---"

"I have a vague idea of it. I still feel like this supernatural powers thing is strange. But, it's not like I am clueless. Besides that person was also an ability user."

s.h.i.+n rubbed the back of his head. "So he basically gave it away. Then, I guess it makes things easier."

His gaze darted towards the bags in her hands, "Let me that."

"Eh? Ah no, I'm fine. I'm healthy so I'm strong enough."

When she saw his unwavering expression she lifted one side. "Half."

s.h.i.+ nodded in understanding and he slung his bag with his free hand across his shoulder, as they held the bag and walked out of the parking lot of the convenient store.

As the brunette looked up, something caught her attention. Oh, that's. . ' A sign a aurora is coming. 'A aurora huh? Come to think of it she and s.h.i.+n had a conversation about this before.

'They say you can see the aurora in the skies when your with the person you love the most'

Back then, she said those words out of impulse. But at that time s.h.i.+n loomed at skies intently, as though he was shocked. He told her that he didn't see anything then; however perhaps he saw it.

The rainbow coloured lights are like stars twinkling in the darkness. The train, whose destination is unknown appears to be crossing under the night sky. Yes, it reminds her of that story. The train that's heading towards the heavens, brings Givonnai and Campanella to the Milky way, waiting at the end is a departure that saddens peoples hearts.

After a few minutes of walking in silence, s.h.i.+n spoke up. "Sumire."

"What is it?"

"You, should start wearing a scarf. Those hikies are in plain sight."

Hik-- it took her a moment to realize what he was talking about.

She felt her cheeks turn scorching hot, embarra.s.sed at s.h.i.+n's words. Sumire dove her hand into her bag and rummages inside.

Soon she found find a black material. Oh this is, . . her gaze softened. That fool, if he was awake he should have just said so. Then again, it seems like he is making an effort to be sweet with her these days. She ought to do something for him.

"Hey, isn't that Yuhi's?"

"Gah. Why on earth do you know that?"

"Probably because he always wears it?"

A deep sigh escaped her lips when she heard those words.

"Well, if your relations.h.i.+p is still doing well despite your engagement to Makoto then, I guess there was no need for me to worry."

"It's a 'fake' engagement. So obviously nothing would happen. Besides Soujiro has accepted it already, that the one I will chose in the end of the day is Yuhi."

!You sound pretty sure of yourself there. But what would you do if Yuhi cheated on you with another big breast beauty?" Sumire steps on his foot then, causing him to yelp. "Ouch, I was only kidding around. Your always so serious."

"I don't care for jokes that insult my relations.h.i.+p with Yuhi. Besides why are you calling that woman a big breast beauty now? You said that she was plain last time."

s.h.i.+n nodded. "Yeah, she's in plain in contrast to you. But in most peoples eyes she can be considered a beauty, and well her figure isn't too bad."

"Your make me want to hit you."

"Well, anyway if your relations.h.i.+p is fine then that's all good."

When she heard his tone, Sumire decided to just say it.

"s.h.i.+n say do you . . still like me?"

s.h.i.+n halts in his tracks. "Your going to ask me that, you have no tact do you?"

"I don't want to hear it from you."

"What a rotten personality, really it's a wonder why your so popular with guys."

"It's not like I ever asked to be popular. If possible, I would have liked it if I wasn't popular. That way, a lot of people wouldn't have gotten hurt."

s.h.i.+ reached over and flicked her forehead. "Stuuuupid. That's like asking you to stop being yourself."

"If your trying to comfort me, you don't have to hit me!" She exclaimed.

"Like those people would say, why do I have to bother consoling you? But yeah, it's like what I said just now. By saying you want to stop being popular that's like depriving you of your personality. I'm sure all those guys have said wish washy lines like, ' the reason I fell for you was because of your music' and stuff like that. But if you read between the lines what they are saying is, the reason why they fell for you was because of your personality."

Oh. . s.h.i.+n looked over at her and sighed. "You never noticed?"

"Rather, when I realised that they all liked me. I consulted Siena and she shoved all her otome games at me, and we had a seven day marathon on searching for a answer why."

Nase Siena was one of her dearest friends. Somebody she could rely on during her harshest times. Right now the girl is abroad 'seeing the world.'

s.h.i.+n's face colour turned pale. "Hey hey, how does consulting games help you find the answer?"

"Eh but at that time, it felt like the most logical way."
